1. Noise from highway 2. Over head lights only this Geri bright, no warm lighting and no atmosphere 3. No paintings on the walls or artistic decor 4. Sticky, dirty 5. Tattered throw pillows on the bed. Holes in them. 6. Noise from highway outside windows 6. Ocean view is across a highway and parking lot 7. “Advertised fireplace” is a dim screen on the wall, far from the beds. Disappointed by high ratings on this website Look for something better

Heating and AC worked fine. Bed was comfortable. Three chairs in the room. Had refrigerator and microwave oven that worked. Our room had a bay window that my wife really liked. Bring water unless you want to use tapwater. Shower was nice. Our room had a charger for a cell phone.

Lisa

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff was not courteous or informed. I asked if I could change from one to two beds in my room and was told that they didn’t have other rooms available, but the entire place only had four cars in the parking lot that night. I also tried to exercise my AAA rate and she told me that she wouldn't honor it.Walls were paper, thin and it sounded like the people in the room next-door were right in our room. Really didn’t want to hear what was going on in there!There were also ants in our room. It’s too bad because it’s a great location, but I would not go back there again.

Disliked: Room comfort
Thin walls, we could hear our neighbor snoring all night. We could also hear occasional noise traffic from the highway. The ‘fireplace’ was just a wall decoration, not for heat. Room was clean but room was too warm, at least for my husband.
